Hi, all.
I've recently install 64-bit OpenSuSE 12.3. It's my first experience of SuSE & I'm enjoying it.
I recently added the packman repo in order to get the restricted codecs for Chromium & since doing so I see this error message every time I run 'zypper up':
'The following package updates will NOT be installed: gstreamer gstreamer-0_10 gstreamer-0_10-plugin-gnomevfs gstreamer-0_10-plugins-bad-lang gstreamer-0_10-plugins-base gstreamer-0_10-plugins-good gstreamer-0_10-utils gstreamer-0_10-utils-unversioned gstreamer-plugins-base gstreamer-plugins-good libcdio14 libgstapp-0_10-0 libgstapp-1_0-0 libgstaudio-1_0-0 libgstfft-1_0-0 libgstinterfaces-0_10-0 libgstpbutils-1_0-0 libgstreamer-0_10-0 libgstreamer-1_0-0 libgstriff-1_0-0 libgstrtp-1_0-0 libgstrtsp-1_0-0 libgstsdp-1_0-0 libgsttag-1_0-0 libgstvideo-1_0-0 libiso9660-8 libmjpegutils-2_0-0 libquicktime0 libquvi-scripts libxine2-pulse python-gstreamer-0_10 typelib-1_0-Gst-0_10 typelib-1_0-Gst-1_0 typelib-1_0-GstAudio-1_0 typelib-1_0-GstInterfaces-0_10 typelib-1_0-GstPbutils-1_0 typelib-1_0-GstTag-1_0 typelib-1_0-GstVideo-1_0'
I'm figuring there's a conflict somewhere hence the packages can't be installed. Is there anyway to clean up this situation?
Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
Phil...
Phil, I saw the other answers, but i'm not sure they made it clear. Generally this means that you have multiple repositories for packages enabled. Once you install a package from a given repository zypper assumes you want to continue using that repository for that package. Thus the above is basically telling you that those packages have more than one source and the source not in use has a higher packaging number. The trouble is the package number is composed of: Package_name-version-release Version comes from upstream so a newer version should always be an upgrade, but release is a local packaging number and is repository specific. Thus if I branch a 12.3 package that is at release 4 to my home project and just do a simple rebuild, my release number will 1. So comparing release numbers between repos is not meaningful.
